Few blogs really are like yours! Looking forward to reading these new posts; often I find reading the older posts is like looking into a London I'll never truly experience - and an update is always appreciated.

I think more content leads to more content, your key phrase was that there was little published content in 2005, books don't tend to appear in search results whereas your blog does (or did), then things flower from there.

This also links back to the OFCOM report, the media now tends to be bottom up rather than top down, the only barrier to doing your blog is you.

Did you ever get back to Scott's Grotto on the New River?

I think your Fleet posts might have been what brought me to your site in the first place so I'm looking forward to this too.

I always considered Fleet Street somewhat disingenuously named, being perpendicular to rather than following the river. Likewise the eponymous tube line had that materialised in its original form and moniker.

Before the 14th century Fleet Street was known as Fleet Bridge Street because it led to Fleet Bridge (first recorded 1197) #spoilers

I’m looking forward to the Kenwood tearooms writeup!

I was walking around Clerkenwell just this weekend so looking forward to that section at least. Even your review from 2005 now seems historic. The area has changed so much.
